Default New XF Owner in the UK

Hello

I know this is a US site but i have been using this site as research to aid my decision to buy a Crossfire.

Well I brought one last weekend, what an awesome car. I test drove a 2004 manual coupe two weeks ago and it was rather scruffy.

Found another one on Saturday,

2005
52000
Red
Automatic
£8,000 / $12,000 (roughly)

Over here they are a rare sight on the road and eberybody comments on it. My boss who is classic car collector described it as beautiful.

My car is in excellent condition and everyone thinks it cost a fortune suggesting i get paid too much (i wish).

I love the automatic gearbox, this is the first car i've owned that is automatic, i drove one last year in Toronto, it was a Dodge Charger.

Glad to be Crossfire owner!!!

I have honestly NEVER seen a Crossfire driving around in Omaha. Lots of people staring when I did the test drive

Congrats, you're right - they are a rare sight here in the UK. There is a UK section to this forum if you ever have UK specific Q's Link:
U.K.

Best wishes.

Welcome aboard
This is not a U.S. site it is a Crossfire site
I was very attracted to the car the first time I saw one. I was completey hooked when I test drove one.
I was in love when I brought my 2004 Limited home.
I was deamed addicted when I purchased my 05' SRT over 2200 miles away without ever seeing one in person.
What ever emotions come next as long as it involves a Crossfire I'll accept em

Hi to both the new UK Owners!!

Well done on your purchase. Had mine since Nov 2009 and LOVE LOVE LOVE every second of it!!!

I am a very happy chappy too as found a very good main dealer too who have sorted me out with a new sat nav on warrenty too after being fed such bullcrap from other dealers.

Enjoy your new rides. BTW a few of us are meeting up on the 18th at Mercedes Benz world would be good to see you there. It will be my first meet too.

Ill mail the details to you that I received. There is also a UK crossfire site too.

Matt
